A close up of the gorgeous colours and textures of the beach rocks.
The beach is strewn with fascinating deep coloured rocks only a violent nature can produce.
Trial Harbour is on Tasmania's south west coastline - a part of vast Ocean Beach.
The beach is strewn with fascinating deep coloured rocks only a violent nature can produce.
Named in 1881 after the cutter Trial, it began as an anchorage for the mining community of Queenstown and Zeehan. It was short lived as a harbour as it was very exposed to the high prevailing winds of the Roaring Forties and it rough weather. Making it treacherous for all ships.
It is now a small community of families who prefer living in this somewhat isolated area with no power lines or tunneled water.
